Can no longer be missing in our household.
The praise around the S6 is really not exaggerated, we are very satisfied with this device. However, his Lidar can not handle glass furniture well :) We had to mark our 100% glass table with tape at 10 cm height so that the S6 initial could map our apartment.
Also, the rail of the balcony sliding door kept confusing him while mapping, he lost orientation and then tried to rediscover already found parts of the apartment because he thought they were new ones.... in an endless loop!
In the end, we improvised a wall with cardboard and the S6 finally finished his map.
Once the apartment was saved, we could also remove all the improvisations and replace them in the app with virtual walls.... Since then, the S6 has managed to vacuum the apartment (almost) without any problems - we are more than happy with its suction performance and only have to vacuum half as much as usual. Even the furniture has less dust on its surfaces quickly - we can confirm that!
The only worry is our runner in the hallway, a very light carpet, which he now and then bends up and then more and more tangled. We are still watching him for now ... (after 2 weeks it is too early for a conclusion, we may then have to remove the runner each time we can not monitor the S6).
In general, with any robot vacuum: the apartment must be freed from all obstacles such as cables, runners, clothes on the floor, etc., chairs up is recommended.
The dust collection box is unfortunately quite small, we have to empty it every 2x and vacuum it empty with our normal vacuum cleaner and fine attachment, which is super convenient and leaves no mess.
The app itself is very unresponsive (you have to be patient when operating it) but very well made and intuitive. It's efficient and easy to use - we especially like the ability to clean individual rooms.
All in all, we immediately came to appreciate the S6 and would buy a new one tomorrow if we didn't have one (anymore)!Pro
- Once mapped good orientation and obstacle handling
- successful app
- Brush visibly vacuums our parquet clean
- Vacuums under all our furniture tip top
Contra
- Has some trouble with runners
- Has trouble with glass tables
Ingenious
Simply ingenious, this thing. Except that as a woman I would prefer a male voice.
The Roborock S6 is the ideal helper for everyday life.
Super helper. Price / performance is right! The product is easy to set up and also to operate. Will the dust bin be full soon? The Roborock (mine is called Budy) will tell you. Also the consumable parts like dust filters (2 included), brushes etc. can be found in the menu and the remaining lifetime is indicated. The Roborock has enough battery to clean my 120 m^2 flat and still has some power left. If it doesn't finish cleaning, it returns to its charging station and after charging it picks up where it left off. Simply ingenious!
Pro
- Cleans clean
- Easily enough for my 120 m^2 flat
- Rooms can be easily separated after automatic scanning
- Cleaning schedule easy to programme
Contra
- App is a little sluggish
- Problems with reflective surfaces (not recognised as walls in the app)

We find the Roborock S6 a very successful product, which we would buy again!
We have already used several robot hoovers from different brands. The Roborock S6 outshines the others with its extensive features at this price/performance ratio and we can recommend it with a clear conscience.
The suction and cleaning performance is very good. We also like the fact that it comes with a detachable water tank for wet mopping, even though this cannot replace the mop, this additional function is very helpful for fine dust. In addition, we find the design of the main brush very successful and reduces the annoying hair removal on the rollers enormously. What convinces us the most is the app. It is very intuitive and comprehensive. With the virtual exclusion zones, we can run it carefree even when we are not at home. In our case, the problem is with the dining table and its chairs. They have an ironing base and we couldn't run the "old" robots unless they were placed on the table, otherwise they would always get stuck. So we can mark the table with a exclusion zone and clean everything. The function with the room division is also very successful and useful. The battery is easily enough for the whole flat (approx. 125m2). The noise level is also very pleasant, but you usually leave a robot hoover running when you are not at home. The dust container is relatively small from our point of view. You have to empty it more often than with other models from the competition. Also worth mentioning is the robot's excellent navigation. It is the first one that does not hit our plant pots with full force. Since the pots are rolling and have a shiny surface, the robot vacuums drove full force into the pots every time and even knocked one over or pushed them around the flat once in a while. Surprisingly, the Roborock can detect these and leaves them alone. With an unloading station, this would be the perfect product.Pro
- Suction and cleaning performance
- Extensive functions (app)
- Clever design of the maintenance parts (roller)
- Price/Performance
Contra
- Small dust container

Dearest living companion now :)
Oh wow how we wasted time vacuuming and mopping without the S6 Roborock! Our S6 has been given a name and we thank it after every clean, it's that good. A bit crazy, I know.
I highly recommend the S6. Thinking of buying a second one as we have 3 floors and the app isn't set up for that...but it still works. We have rearranged the house a bit to make cleaning easier (hidden cables, set up 'no-go' zones on the app etc.) and we save 2 hours a week thanks to the S6.Pro
- Time saving
- Sucks really well
- Water wipe function is also quite good
- Stylishly elegant
- Good app to control
- Deserves 10 stars
Contra
- A bit tricky if you have a 3 storey house...app is not set for that
- Water wiping: should cover smaller areas intensively, not like vacuuming. But quite ok.
